)Farrokh Bulsara. Born into a Persian family today in 1946 on the island of Zanzibar.
He was obsessed with music and played records on the family's record player, stacking the singles to play constantly. The music he was able to get was mostly Indian, but some Western music was available. The principal headmaster of St Peter's had noticed Farrokh's musical talent, and wrote to his parents suggesting that they might wish to pay a little extra on Freddie's school fees to enable him to study music properly. They agreed, and Farrokh began to learn to play the piano. Good move.
Somewhere along the line he changed his name to Freddie.
Freddie Mercury (5 September 1946 – 24 November 1991)
